Binaries were not thoroughly tested as I don't have enough time, feel free to contribute otherwise use podman desktop itself!
Although main branch contained a lot of changes, last binary release was 2 years ago to allow others to sprout, they have done so, now back to having fun.

NOTE - This project is not dead, it is still fun and a place to play with tech!

Home page note to favor podman-desktop
README.md note to favor podman-desktop
TODO.md update to release binaries for 5.2.0-rc1
Links to Podman in action and Podman for DevOps books
Registries support(define / search / pull) - search using podman configuration for podman engine only, inline configuration(custom) for all engines
Overlay quick start container actions on hover and tap for table users
Expand / collapse sidebar support for more work space horizontally (persist settings across restart)
Light mode / Dark mode toggle (already supported by the blueprintjs framework but not enabled) - for all engines
Icons for some table views headers
Unified navigation / inspect for all entities that support it

Upgraded node to 20
Upgrades to be compatible with podman 5.2.0
Modified example to work on Ubuntu 22.04 (my current OS)
More compact lists and table views
Unified headers with tables / lists
Containers groups show first (like folders first in file managers)
Pod infrastructure containers are placed in their special group, showing first if they exist
Container logs use VT100 emulator for displaying ansi-colors properly (service is consuming byte array data instead of strings)

Merged all dependabot PRs
Open terminal on some platforms
Open browser on some platforms
Main window shows up only when UI has received all init data to avoid showing incomplete windows
Detail tables in Drawers didn't size properly - first column was taking too much space

This discussion was created from the release 5.2.0-rc.1 - Thank you to podman.
